GTA are kind of over rated if you ask me.

I think the controls would be pretty cool on the Wii console, if it was released I would buy it and check it out.

GTA isn't the greatest series that ever graced the gaming world, the Wii could do without this- play last gen consoles if you want it.

I think all the Wii needs to be on top is SSBB.

Forget GTA, SSBB kills it 10 times over.

I don't see how Nintendo is to blame here either.
Plus we would have a better shot of getting a port of an old game than ever getting a new one. I could care less really though, if I wanted one I would buy another system.

True.

GTA4 is looking kind of bad at the moment too....

Reviews of the demo, etc.

Its possibal, although beased on most 3rd party so far i bet we are going to continue to get an "exclusive" version of the top 3rd party games, mainly because they just share the HD games between PS3 and 360.. But the Wii is a totally different concept. You take away the graphics and toss that money into gameplay...

They wont continue to toss the throw away trash onto the Wii or ports of old games they just are not making money doing this, so why even bother?

If they want money they go where the people are "Wii" and give them something good. 3rd party knows this so although it might not compare to the 360/ps3 versions of the games.
Titles like GTA will probably make it to the Wii over the next few months and years but they will have there own Wii flare "motion controlls" instead of "Graphics" 360/ps3..

The cool thing about this is once they figure out how to incoporate the motion controlls into games better over time they will be able to pop out games faster for the Wii than for the other 2 consoles just because of the time it takes to make an HD game...

The Wii will probably be the one poping out Big 3rd Party titles first in the next year or so and then the "eye candy" version for the other 2 systems will come out later and probably a different game altogether. Specially considering the Wii is the 2nd console to alot of ps3/360 guys. The 3rd party knows they will not buy the same title twice so why even bother trying to make the same game for Wii?
They wont they will make a different game all together, and if they want it to sell at all it will be new and unique, not a port or a cheep downgrade.

So thats my prediction if the gaming world gets its act together and wants to cash in like Nintendo is... They will start making 2 different games, the 360/ps3 game and the Wii versions. Few titles might be an exception like GH3/Rockband and of course the standard crap casual titles that are tossed on all 3 systems. Although nintendo has been doing decent with the casual titles like Wii sports,endless ocean,brain age... Not many other publishers are cut out to make this type of game and make it well! But we see many try to cash in on nintendos sucess with these games and fall falt on there face or make a quick buck and run. Even causal gamers wont put up with this quality for long. They will just start buying Nintendo's and well know 3rd party titles and nothing else.

Yeah that's why we have Manhunt 2 on Wii.

It's a matter of whether Rockstar wants to develop it for the Wii which they obviously don't.

I know that we have Manhunt 2 on the Wii...we're also getting Bully, another game made by Rockstar. I never said that Nintendo would say no to Rockstar games, I'm just saying I don't think Nintendo would allow it on the Wii if Rockstar wants it or not.

Slim probabilities or any of that to happen.

SO then by the looks of it, Rockstar is leaning towards the Wii's direction.

We will eventuall get a GTA styled game sooner or later.

You guys still all think 3rd party cares about what console they sell on... They don't its buisness flat out, unless they have a contract agreement they will make whatever for whoever aslong as it means making money.

The reason we dont have huge 3rd party support is because no one thought the Wii would do this well, not even Nintendo! Pretty obvious based on the still impossibal to find wii and shortages.

Now it takes 6-12 months to make a decent game.With that time frame for the Wii we were just starting to see the huge popularity in 9-12 month sales area with the Wii.
I'm sure publishers noticed this aswell, and we hear endless stories now of them shifting development twards the Wii. So far its been 15 months so even the ones who started to switch over at 9 months of Wii sales means we are just now getting the titles...
The ones that waited a year or longer to see where the consoles lied "which was most 3rd party" are probably in development now for the Wii titles. So you still have to figure another 3-9 months before we see 3rd Party support like crazy.

It will come "if they like money and staying in buisness" they arn't fanboy gamers they go where the money is, it is buisness nothing more. Any other decision is just stupidity on there part, and they will suffer for it finacially.

Where do you guys keep comming up with this idea that Nintendo has a say in what 3rd party games are put on the console?

If you buy the license to make Wii games you can make any game you want Nintendo can't tell you that you can't sell it!

This was settled years ago back in the Atari Days... Video Game consoles are Much like VCR's/DVD players in the FCC and other Gov't agencys eyes. It plays Video games but the doesn't give the console manufacturer the right to say what does and doesn't make it onto a console. They just get paid for copyrights,patents, license agreements thats it.

Granted they arn't going to hand out licenses to just anyone but all the larger 3rd party already have a license to make games. The only thing stopping them from releasing GTA on the Wii would be a contract agreement with the game from previous versions. Thats the only thing that stops any big game from making it to other consoles, Alot of times big 3rd party titles are bought with exclusive rights and they can't sell it before the rights run out. Beyond that you can make any game you feel like for anyone you have a license, all you HAVE to do is get the game rated.

For all of the blood and violence then get Scarface, the Godfather or No more heroes. And if your still not satisfied you are a moron GTA isn't up to nintendo, its up to Rockstar. Sure Rockstar did release manhunt 2 for wii but toned down the gruesome scenes to make its especially for the wii, for them to tone it down i don't know know but hey it worked. So quite your bitching.
If you GTA so much then buy a ps3. Scarface, godfather and NMH and manhunt 2 are violent enough. Halo for wii i can't see how that would work. but HOTD 2 & 3 i can't want for. Think we need a game like Dead Rising not just RE4, or something like nightmare creatures 1 & 2 or another Ninja gaiden.
So who cares if GTA isn't on the wii we got 3 great games so far.
if you want it so bad then buy a ps3 or 360

'Nintendo. I am sick of you' - Wanting a GTA game on the wii isn't a valid reason for that.

Like other people have said if you want to play GTA just play it on another console. Why should the wii have every single game ever.
